Honest Iphone 3g poll....Good,bad,ok?

Hi, I am debating on getting a iphone but still on the fence. I would like to have anyone who owns one please give me a Good,Bad or Ok experience with the iphone, and your city and state. I would like to see if it is as bad as the forums say. I don't see any positive discussions about it. So here is your chance. Voice your opinion. Tell us if you like the iphone what you use it for and would you recommend it. Please be honest. Oh my main reason to get one is for the games and ipod soo any ipod touch info would help too..
Thanks

100% honest, I promise.
I love it, I really do. Every day I'll be reminded how good it is when I see how easy it is to do things on it. Granted, I don't browse the net much on it but I do pick up emails via POP3, check the weather and download the odd App and it's great. Also, since 2.1 my 3G connection is a lot better than it used to be.

  • Iphone tethering: the good, bad and ugly?

    i'm goign to a rental that has no wifi for a few days.
    thinking about using wifi tethering via iphone at&t.
    how slow will the connection be?
    let's assume that the att connection will be good, not excellent.
    if i need to download 30MB video files will i be waiting a few minutes, few hours...?
    any and all advice. let's assume i'll be buying the enterprise tethering plan from AT&T.
    thanks

    I just ran SpeedTest.net on my iPhone here in my office (AT&T).  I'm in Durham NC and I used Washington D.C. as the test server, and I got 0.91Mbps download, and 0.28Mbps upload, which in my experience is pretty good for my iPhone, but note that is about 10x slower then my average home connection.
    Also keep in mind the difference in downloading content that has been specifically optimized for smart phone users, versus content that is optimized for higher bandwidth users (sort of like the default image resolution when sending from your phone, versus sending a high resolution image from you home computer).  Content providers do package their content with the end-user device in mind, not the connection you plan to use to get it.

    My battery on my iphone 5 is very bad, its that uasual? It has been like this sence iw got it

    How bad is it? I mean how long does it last on standby.
    My first iPhone 5 had a bad battery and they replaced the phone. The new one isn't good either, but I can live with it.

  • HT1296 I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour.

    I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour and there is a downlaod symbol in front of the song title.  what do i do next??  They play on my iphone and from the itunes library but not from my ipod touch.

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

    I am at Ramstein AB Germany.  My iphone screen was smashed badly on the flight to Germany this morning.  WHEN I access apple support for this subject it gives me 3 options call now, call me now or call me later.  As I am in Germany with no coverage and no working phone none of those options will work.  Can you get this e-mail to someone who can help.  My iphone serial # is C38xxxxxx. 1) I need to know where and how I can get a replacement somewhere nearby in Germany 2) If 1 is not an option I need to set up an appt to get a to get a new iphone at an apple store in Atlanta GA in the evening of 11 July.
    Thank you very much, Phil Edelen

    Thanks, my wife is the one serving I am retired and trying to follow her as much as I can. 
    I will schedule an appt for my next time stateside.  I have spent too much time on many Apple web sites trying to get an e-mail to communicate with anyone at Apple to no avail, only phone numbers. I guess if you are overseas with no international access you are out of luck communicating with them.  I did find one e-mail address but the reply was computer generated and provided useless links.
    If anyone has any e-mail address for anyone at Apple I would appreciate it.
    Thanks again,
    Phil

  • Oracle 11g R2 Instance Caging on Linux 64-bit? Good, Bad, Ugly.

    Hello everyone
    I hope this is the correct forum, if not please advise best place to post this question.
    I am thinking of using Oracle 11g R2 Enterprise Edition running on 64-bit Linux server (Oracle Linux 6.x or Red Hat Linux 6.x) with Resource Manager Instance Caging feature enabled to consolidate about 20 databases on one larger Intel-X64 server (40 cores, 512RB RAM, SAN). RAC is not needed but RAC One Node may be one other possible option as will also be Data Guard 11g R2 for HA/DR.
    I am looking for opinions from those who have used and implemented Instance Caging feature in production on 11g R1 or 11g R2 on Linux/UNIX 64-bit OS - please share your experiences - good, bad, ugly ?
    Any recent whitepapers and studies on 11g R2? I have seen some information dating back to 11g R1 (~2009), hoping there are some 11g R2 updates on this topic for 2010-2012.
    Please provide pointers if you know of any.
    Has anyone implemented Instance Caging on RAC One Node (or full RAC)? Opinions?
    thanks.

  • Good, bad or average

    Okay, I have established a network using four AP Extremes. Three are extended off a base station that is connected to Comcast.  Distance between extremes are about 50 feet each.
    The length of the need for a network is about a football field with two story condo buildings along the sideline.  I have placed the Extremes in the window stills in direct line with either other.  Using 2.4 GHZ with automatic radio.  Buildings are concrete with windows that are length of room.  I have encourage folks to get extenders to place at their windows to extend beyond the front of the window.
    If I am right we are talking at least 300 feet total, if that's the length of the football field. 
    Two of the units seem to get weak and give off poor signal.  We have problems with the signal going in and out thus causing some outage and gaps in the service.  It appears its worst at night.
    Good, bad or average?  Any suggestion on improving the network's signal so people don't have gaps in the signal?  Is there another source of devices that can be used that not a commerical grade (expensive) and can be easily installed?
    Thanks.

    Start writing your LOX for the lates and collections.     Make sure they have all your documents within the first week.   The monthly payment for a 100 year old house is too high.  I think you all should wait to get your score up for a better rate.  5% for the amount you're borrowing is too high compared to the average APR being 4.04% now.  Ar you planning to live in the home forever?  May be hard to sell a home that is 100 years old unless you do some extensive remodeling.

    No. If they can't recover it at https://iforgot.apple.com it's useless. It's likely the phone is stolen.

  • Is charging my iPhone 6 plus overnight bad for my batteries "lifespan"?

    Is charging my iPhone 6 plus overnight bad for my batteries "lifespan"

    The iPhone has a very smart charger built into the phone. The thing that plugs in to the wall is not a charger; it is just a power source. Likewise, the Lightning cable is not a charger; it is wires plus a digital to analog converter built into the plug. The charger itself is inside the phone, and it will not allow the battery to be overcharged. It stops charging when the battery reaches 1000%. So the best way to manage your battery is to charge it overnight, every night. Whether you think it needs charging or not. That way it will always start the day with a full charge.

  • My iphone battery is in bad shape ... I have some support?.

    dont know to do the truth if I go to an apple store only thing I will say is that I have to buy another? or what can I change?

    thanks....
    and bless

    If you are having battery issues, and you haven't, you should try updating your phone to the latest iOS version (7.1.2).
    Try restoring the iPhone like a new device after the update and test the phone as this may be fix the issue.

  • HT201472 What if I found my iPhone and it has bad imei

    What if I found my iPhone and it has bad imei I want to clear it my iPhone was off when I set it as lost mode

    if it has a bad imei there is no way to clear it, you can attempt to call your carrier if you havent already done so to see if there is a way to confirm that the imei you have is the correct one to get it of the black list but this is an attempt not sure if they can do it

  • IPhone 6 screen clicking/bad glue - a widespread problem?

    Ugraded to iPhone 6 in early November and within a week I started to notice a distinct clicking noise while/immediately after touching the screen.
    To clarify, this was a noise being created by some hardware anomoly (it happens when the device is off.)
    To be clear, I have BABIED this phone in ways that my 4s would have dreamed of.
    It has never been dropped, sat on, spilled on.. I don't take it into the bathroom during showers or expose it to any extreme temperatures or humidity of any kind, apart from unavoidable use in the winter. I don't breath on it the wrong way! .
    After a very breif search, it turns out that a whole lot of people are experiencing this issue.
    SO, after about 4 hours on the phone with Apple total, I've had the device serviced twice.
    FIrst by a certified Apple tech in my area, who cleaned the device for particulate that might be causing the problem (which he had apparently encountered before)
    Unfortunately, this did nothing to help the issue.
    I then drove 2 hours to the nearest Apple store. I was told that they had also seen this issue, and that it potentially had something to do with bad glue used in the screen.
    I Personally don't know what particular way the glue is used.
    After another couple of hours of waiting, they decided to do a full screen replacement, which the tech claimed solved the issue "like 100% of the time"
    About 3 days went by before the issue started again, this time in a completely different area of the screen and much louder.
    I'm definitely going to return and ask for a replacement phone, and I doubt that Apple will give me trouble there.
    I guess I'm just deeply confused by how/why Apple is using such terrible construction practices in these new phones.
    I REALLY want to like this phone, but this clicking makes me feel like i'm using my old blackberry storm, which I still consider to be the most disgusting/deeply funny encounter with mobile phone technology that I've ever had..
    seems like when one of the chief reasons to buy an iPhone is elegance in its hardware, Apple probbaly should have done at least A LITTLE BIT of testing before shipping millions of units.
    Does Apple ever address or change any of these glaring flaws? If this has happened to me twice, considering how well I have treated this phone, it must be happening all over and in huge numbers. What's most dissapointing is that I loved my iPhone 4s, it had super good construction and I really did beat the **** out of it.
    I took it into the snow, rain, into the sauna, tossed it around, sat on it all day and dropped it countless times without any problems at all.
    I guess I'm not necessarily looking for advice, since I'm already planning on returning for a new iPhone 6
    However, my fear is that this will just happen again to the replacement. just trying to get a scale of how widespread this issue is and if it's even worth my time - since it sounds like it might just happen again.

    I had this issue with my last iPhone 6 in the upper left corner.  Noticed it when I was playing games in landscape.  Screen sounded "tappy" and loose when hitting the D-pad control in that area.  I didn't really mind and didn't want to exchange again because I already went through several due to screen shadows, etc.  Eventually I started getting "ghost touches" where apps would open, things were getting clicked that I was not clicking (even after full restore and set device up as new).  Not sure if it's related but the only time I've ever experienced this was with an Android phone where the display was replaced and the ground wire was loose.  Apple replaced my unit however this new one still has a slightly loose upper left corner again.  Sometimes it switches to the bottom left and will make a click when I press hard in that area and release.  If it's tolerable for now you may want to hold off on replacement until later in the year while still inside the warranty.
